Chapter 186: The Buried Hole! The Underworld Palace! (Please vote!)

Hu Bayi hurriedly lit another candle at Shirley Yang's call, and did not extinguish it, which showed that the air quality still allowed him to move forward.

But the more I crawled forward, the more depressed I felt.

Hu Bayi was crawling forward along the tunnel. Shirley Yang patted his feet from behind, "Hu Bayi! Hu Bayi!"

Hu Bayi looked back at her and saw that Shirley Yang was sweating and panting. She must be tired, so he shouted to the back, "Everyone take a break! Relax!"

Then he stuck the candle into the ground and was about to check on Shirley Yang and ask if he could continue to crawl forward, but he saw the candlelight suddenly disappeared, and the passage became darker!

Could it be Ghost Blows Out the Light?
It can’t be that weird, Hu Bayi thought.

Just as he was about to fumble for the candles, he saw a strong light coming from behind him. He turned away and said, "Hey! Mr. Fan! Why didn't you take out the strong flashlight earlier?"

Zhang Fan smiled and said, "I thought this candle was your tradition!"

He knew the tradition of tomb raiders, but he only just remembered the idea of ​​stealing holes!
He took out two flashlights and threw them to the two people in front, then asked the ones behind him, "Do you two want flashlights?"

"Thank you Mr. Zhang!"

"want!"

Two more were thrown back.

Hu Bayi turned on the flashlight and found that Shirley Yang was not seriously injured. He guessed that he just kept his head down and had some congestion. He helped rub it and turned around to see what happened to the extinguished candle, but found that the ground in front of him was empty and the candle that was originally inserted in the ground was gone.

For a moment, Hu Bayi felt his scalp tingling. He thought he could enter the underground palace through the previous tomb-stealing hole, and this tomb-stealing hole was in the direction pointed out by Blind Chen!

Logically, it should be as easy as taking something out of a bag, but this time it was really weird. The candle in front of him disappeared out of thin air.

Moreover, he clearly remembered that the place where he placed the candle was covered with mud, and there was still some mud and sand on his hands, but what he saw in front of him was a flat stone slab. Where did this stone slab come from?

Without giving it much thought, Hu Bayi immediately said, "Climb back quickly, there's something wrong with this tunnel."

After hearing this, Abao hurried back, but he stopped moving as soon as he turned his head. Wang Kaixuan pushed his butt from behind and asked, "What's wrong, Mr. Bao? Grit your teeth and hold on. Climb out and rest. Now is not the time to rest."

A Bao's voice was obviously trembling, as if he was frightened. He turned to Wang Kaixuan and said, "Fatty... there is a stone wall ahead, blocking the road. We can't get out."

Wang Kaixuan saw that his face was so pale with fear that it was difficult for him to speak, so he motioned to Abao to move aside so that he could take a look.

Wang Kaixuan took a look and saw that there was indeed a large flat rock blocking the road in front of A Bao. He frowned and was about to turn around and tell the people behind him to see if there was any solution. But when the words came to his lips, his eyes lit up and he swallowed them down. "Boss Bao! Don't you know martial arts? Smash it!"

After hearing what Wang Kaixuan said, A Bao also reacted. Could it be that this stone wall was as hard as the Iron-Headed Dragon King?

I was just scared and lost my master's demeanor!
Zhang Fan, who was watching in the middle, wanted to laugh as well. He was not worried at all. He knew whether there was danger or not. He should continue along the original path, then encounter three tunnels and finally enter the Hades Palace.

Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang were waiting behind, and with the help of flashlights, they discovered the stone wall in front of Abao, who was now panting and hitting the stone wall. The broken stones fell to the ground, leaving a hole the size of a TV, but it was still stone.

At this time, Zhang Fan used his divine sense to explore and instantly found the location of the Underworld Palace.

He said to Abao: "Boss Bao! Stop digging!"

Then he turned to Hu Bayi and said, "Miss Hu Yang, keep going forward and follow my instructions. Don't worry!"

Hu Bayi nodded when he saw this. What he saw after returning to Shanghai this time was Zhang Fan's extraordinaryness. Now that Zhang Fan spoke, he must have his reasons. He nodded to Shirly Yang and turned forward.

The remaining few people had no objection when they saw this, but Wang Kaixuan was whispering to A Bao in the back, guessing Zhang Fan's strength.

After climbing for a while, the team stopped. Zhang Fan saw Hu Bayi turned around and said to him: "Mr. Zhang, there are three holes ahead. Which one should we go into?"

Hu Bayi asked Zhang Fan, feeling somewhat puzzled at this moment. The tunnels dug to steal tunnels had always been one and he had never heard of a fork in the road. Even if he had two more heads, he couldn't figure out what was going on!

Zhang Fan thought for a moment and said, "The second one!"

Hu Bayi didn't ask anything, just did as he was told, and the team continued to move forward!

This section of the tunnel was very short. It crawled forward for more than fifty meters and then turned upward for more than ten meters. The surrounding tunnels changed from soil to stone slabs and finally to blue bricks.

Hu Bayi was overjoyed when he saw this!

He kept walking, but he was still shouting, "Mr. Zhang! We're here! These are blue bricks! Blue bricks from the Tang Dynasty! We've reached the Tang Dynasty tomb!"

As Zhang Fan crawled forward, he looked at the blue bricks and wondered what the original book said.

The blue bricks in Tang tombs are three or four palms thick. They are all bottom tomb bricks that can be opened with a shovel or iron drill. These tomb bricks are only laid at the bottom of the Hades Hall, and the rest of the ground and walls are made of iron. The fixed boulders, with the gaps sealed with iron slurry, are all airtight. Only the small area in the middle of the Hades Hall is a slightly weak spot.

It seems that this is the underground Tang Tomb!
I probed upwards with my divine sense and found no trap device. This is it!

"Old Hu, stop looking! Everyone stop!"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone stopped walking and turned their eyes to him.

The next moment, they all opened their mouths wide, shocked.

Suddenly, a circle of blood-red sword shadows appeared around Zhang Fan. He waved his finger upwards, and the blood-red sword shadows rushed upwards like a tornado, and immediately a big hole opened on the top of the tunnel. It was the Infinite Sword System + Sword Qi Tornado created by Zong Wufan!

"Fuck!"

"nb!"

"Mr. Fan is awesome!"

"Mr. Zhang! Fatty, I want to learn this move!"

Want to learn this trick?

Is Wang Kaixuan still asleep?

Zhang Fan did not respond to them and flew out of the cave. The cave entrance was not some other place but the Underworld Palace!

I looked around and this is the place!

Several people in the tunnel slowly crawled out and tidied their clothes.

Po was naturally curious about the tomb. He looked around, touched things, and almost licked them.

Ah Bao was just getting close to Hu Bayi and Shirely Yang, and was about to ask something when he heard Wang Kaixuan suddenly say, "Hey, Old Hu, Staff Officer Yang! Why is there no coffin in this underworld palace?"

A Bao asked doubtfully: "Coffin?"

Hu Bayi explained: "Boss Bao, you don't know this. The place we are in now looks like a tomb chamber. This tomb chamber is also called the Hades Palace in such a large tomb!"

Since ancient times, the Hades Palace has been the place where the coffin of the tomb owner is placed. It is clearly written in the "Book of Burial" that the Hades Palace, also known as the Cining Hall, is the core part of the mausoleum. No matter whether it is a joint burial or a single burial, the tomb owner should wear burial clothes and sleep peacefully in the coffin, which will be covered with an outer coffin. Even if the body of the tomb owner cannot be placed in the coffin for some reason, the clothes, hat and shoes worn by the tomb owner during his lifetime will be placed in the coffin and buried.

In short, there may be no corpse, but the coffin must be in the bedroom no matter what. Moreover, the tomb raiders of all generations would never pour out the coffin when they dismantled the tomb. Besides, the space in the hole is limited, so even if the coffin is not big, it is impossible to pour it out from the hole.

Hu Bayi was also a little confused at the moment. He racked his brains but could not figure out the reason. Could it be that the tomb owner's coffin turned into water vapor and evaporated?
Shirley Yang was also a little confused at this time. He stood behind Hu Bayi and patted his shoulder to remind him: "Hu Bayi, take a good look at this underworld palace. Besides the lack of a coffin, what else is wrong?"

Hu Bayi nodded and looked the underworld palace carefully from top to bottom. Not only was there no coffin in the underworld palace, but there was nothing at all. The ground was empty. Not to mention burial objects, there was not even an extra stone.

However, looking at the scale and structure of the underworld palace, it is a first-class tomb of a prince or noble of the Tang Dynasty. The building structure is round on the top and square on the bottom, with sharp edges and corners, smooth and neat. The shape of the top is like the roof of a yurt, dome-like. This is called the round sky and square earth, which is exactly the same as people's view of the universe at that time.

There were six stone shelves on the ground of the Hades Palace. These shelves were empty and nothing was placed on them. Hu Bayi looked at them and explained to everyone that they were used to place the six kinds of jades, Cong, Gui, Zhang, Bi, Hu and Huang, for offering sacrifices to the six directions. This was a privilege only for members of the royal family.

The four walls of the Hades Palace were not empty, but there were some murals painted in outline, without any coloring. They depicted the sun, the moon, and the stars, and the main thing was thirteen palace maids. Some of these palace maids held brocade boxes, some held jade pots, and some held musical instruments. They were all fat, showing a picture scroll of court life in the Tang Dynasty.

All the murals were only painted without any color. Hu Bayi didn't know much about the murals. He looked at Shirley Yang, who just shook his head.

Hu Bayi sighed inwardly, it was a pity that Da Jin Ya didn't come, otherwise, with Da Jin Ya's decades of experience in antiques, he might be able to figure out what this meant.

Shirley Yang's eyes lit up. She saw Zhang Fan standing in front of the mural, looking at it with great interest. She took two steps forward and said to Zhang Fan, "Mr. Zhang, do you know anything about this mural?"

Zhang Fan shook his head. He didn't have any research on it. He just thought that there was nothing strange about the original mural. Why not just cut it off and take it away when he leaves, and put it in Shanghai Guxuan Pavilion, and then let Da Jin Ya find a few masters to complete it. It would look grand when it is displayed!
Shirley Yang saw that Zhang Fan didn't understand either, so he stopped asking and turned around to go back to Hu Bayi.

At this moment, Hu Bayi was taking out a candle from his bag and explaining to A Bao the principle of "people light candles and ghosts blow out the lights." A Bao was stunned by what he heard.

But unexpectedly, Shirly Yang stepped forward and snatched the candle away.

"Hey! Staff Officer Yang, I'm explaining science to General Bao, what are you doing?" Hu Bayi looked confused, and A Bao was also confused.

Shirley Yang replied without even turning his head, "We can't see anything at the moment, why don't we click and see first!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Shirley Yang came to the southeast corner of the Hades Palace alone and lit a candle. Although the light was weak, the flame was straight and there was no sign of it going out. Shirley Yang looked at the candle and felt relieved. He called a few people and prepared to go to the front hall to take a look.

Everyone passed through the stone gate of the Underworld Palace and came to the front hall.

In ancient Chinese mausoleums, the most important thing was the underworld hall, followed by the front hall. According to tradition, the arrangement of the front hall is called "treating the dead as if they were alive". The previous dynasty had a system, which was passed down until the end of the Qing Dynasty. The only difference was the scale.

The front hall will look like the place where the tomb owner lived during his lifetime. If the tomb owner lived in a palace during his lifetime, the front hall must also be built to look like a real palace.

Of course, except for the old emperor, the rest of the royal family members can only keep an area where they lived during their lifetime in the front hall. It is impossible for every royal family member to build a palace in the mausoleum as it is. Only the emperors who have ascended the throne and held the treasures are worthy of such specifications.

This kind of mausoleum was the first time that Hu Bayi and his companions had encountered it. When they entered the front hall, they were all shocked. Even Zhang Fan was shocked. The skills of the ancient craftsmen were no less than the wonders of nature!
It was seen that the front hall was larger in scale, but the pavilions and halls were only half built, and the construction was stopped until now.

The front hall was indeed built like an ancient palace, but some important parts were not completed. Only a rough frame was built. The stone door in the underground palace had been sealed, and the four walls were made of huge stone bars. The gaps were poured with iron liquid and reinforced with iron bars as thick as duck eggs.

There is a small fountain pool on the ground in the front hall of the underground palace, and water is still bubbling out of the spring.

A Bao gently nudged Wang Kaixuan beside him and asked, "Fatty, why is there a fountain in this tomb?"

Asking Wang Kaixuan about this matter was of course asking the wrong person. After hesitating for a long time, he managed to utter, "Hey! Old Hu, what are you doing standing there? Explain this to Mr. Bao!"

Hu Bayi also took a quick look at the front hall and didn't find anything special. After hearing what Wang Kaixuan said, he pointed at the fountain and explained to A Bao: "Boss Bao, look at this small fountain. This is what is commonly known as the coffin spring. If there is such a spring in a tomb with a good Feng Shui position, it is really a top-notch treasure."

"A dragon vein also needs to rely on the terrain. When I first looked at the Feng Shui of this ancient tomb from outside, I felt that although it was a dragon vein, the terrain of the mountain had been broken by the erosion of wind and rain. The original auspicious dragon turned into a worthless dragon without any protection."

"But now it seems that the situation here is a rare internal cave. There is a spring in the cave, and the water flow of this spring is always so strong. It will not overflow or dry up. In terms of Feng Shui, this cave has the image of a storage container. It originates from the sky, like the waves of water. This internal cave is very suitable for burying women. The descendants will surely receive its blessings."

Shirley Yang suddenly realized, "Oh, this is what we call a coffin surge? I've heard of it, but I've never seen it. So it seems that the Feng Shui position of this place is intact, which is even more strange. Why is the work inside only half done? And the owner of the tomb hasn't been buried yet?"

Hu Bayi replied: "Strange things happen every year, but today there are more. Even in the front hall, it is like this. It is not yet completed. It is really hard to understand."

Wang Kaixuan also said: "I don't think it's strange. Maybe there was a war at the time, or the expenditure was too high, so the financial revenue could not be paid, so such a large mausoleum could not be built."

Hu Bayi shook his head after hearing this. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Zhang Fan also shook his head, so he asked, "Mr. Zhang, what do you think?"

Zhang Fan thought for a moment and said, "Judging from the situation of the tomb wall and the stone gate being blocked, they didn't leave in a hurry after stopping the construction, but closed the underground palace leisurely, and they don't plan to come back to work in the future. Otherwise, just opening this stone gate would be a big project, and outside this stone gate, there are at least four other large stone gates of the same size."

Hu Bayi nodded and said, "That's right, absolutely not. Mr. Zhang is insightful! This mausoleum was half-built and stopped, and the location was changed. This is very unlucky for the owner, and the person who chose the location will be killed. First of all, this treasure cave is absolutely fine from the perspective of Feng Shui. It is hidden and not exposed, and it is difficult for tomb robbers to find it. It is also a rare hidden treasure. It is not because of another good location that this half-built mausoleum was abandoned. It is also impossible because of war and disasters. In that case, the underground palace would not be sealed. There is nothing inside, and it should not be to prevent tomb robbers from stealing gold and tombs."

"But why did the people who built this mausoleum abandon this place? There must be some compelling reason, but I really can't guess it."

Shirley Yang pondered for a moment, "It seems that the seniors who built the Fishbone Temple as a disguise and dug a hole to cut into the Hades Palace were also deceived by an empty tomb like us. But his body was not found here, which means that Blind Chen was not referring to this place! There are other tombs below!"

After hearing this, Hu Bayi and Shirly Yang looked at each other with horror on their faces. No wonder several of their predecessors died here. Who knows what dynasty's tomb is buried under this Tang Tomb? The older it is, the more dangerous it is!
Zhang Fan wanted to see the giant face in the original book and experience the Soul-hanging Ladder, so he said, "Since we've looked around here and there's nothing, let's go to the back hall and the side halls on both sides to see if there are any other ways out. If not, we'll have to find a way out through the tunnel!"

Several people nodded in agreement and decided that if they couldn't find it, they would go back and ask Blind Chen.

But it’s impossible to find it!

On the way back to the Hades Palace, Abao sighed that it was a pity that he didn't bring a camera and was unable to record it.

As they were talking, everyone had already walked back to the Underworld Palace. Suddenly, A Bao, who was walking in front, stopped, turned to look at Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan, and pointed in the direction of the candle. Wang Kaixuan covered his mouth with his hand and put his finger on his lips, making a gesture to keep quiet.
